Holiday Injuries:  Grieving the Loss of a Loved One Killed by a Drunk Driver

Has a drunk driver caused the death of your loved one?  Delaware law allows his/her/their Estate to make a claim against the drunk driver.  The law also permits a recovery for certain members of the deceased’s family, such as a spouse, children, parents, and in some circumstances, other family members.

Through this process, emergency transportation, medical bills, and funeral costs may be reimbursed.  Additionally, the value of your loved one’s lifetime lost wages, contribution to the family, the emotional distress of certain family members, and other less tangible losses may be accounted for through this process.

You can learn more about legal options available to preserve your loved one’s memory by contacting Murphy & Landon, Injury Attorneys, to schedule an appointment.  You can ask about how to pursue a claim on behalf of the estate; how to use the available auto policies to pay outstanding bills and anticipated costs; and how to guarantee funds are available for future care of the children and family of your loved one.

For a free consultation with a Murphy & Landon attorney, contact us at:  866-939-8100 or 302-472-8100.
